Experimental psychologist and cognitive neuroscientist. I research the mechanisms that allow us to perceive social information from faces and bodies.

A new article from my lab:
Distinct contributions of foveal and extrafoveal visual information to emotion judgments and gaze behavior for faces https://t.co/N712aN07KZ

[Durham University @durham_uni]

Researchers including Prof Rob Barton of @AnthDurham1 used innovative approaches to provide the most comprehensive view yet of how human brain size evolved over time 🧠👉 https://t.co/ZjwHBB9DeU @howbrainsevolve @LeverhulmeTrust #DUresearch #DUinspire

🚨 How do faces and hands move in socio-emotional scenarios? In our study w/ @zannaclay @MariskaKret @SocialVisionLab and co we used automated face tracking and gesture analyses to study nuanced audience effects on emotion expressions in human adults 1/3

Excited to share our latest work! We found that preparatory neural activity (the “attentional template”) flexibly represents target-associated objects, guiding eye movements toward likely target locations.
